Ducharme on the performance of Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Cole Caufield in the first round:
They brought speed and energy. We got here because of the work of our veterans and our youngsters. You can't go far in the playoffs unless everybody contributes. Both the veterans and youngsters responded well to the challenge.
Ducharme on Monday night's flight to Winnipeg after eliminating the Maple Leafs:
We enjoyed the win for a bit. The players were happy and everybody was in a good mood. As soon as we got up this morning, though, we focused on our preparation for the Jets. It's important to turn the page. It's important to enjoy the moment, but also to turn the page and prepare for Game 1 on Wednesday.
